This is wonderful. The mechanisms are clever, perfectly executed, the visuals are great. This is especially fun to discover the game without reading the instructions. Bravo !

I like that you can change the key layout to DVORAK/AZERTY/MORTY, but this doesn't help when it comes to punctuation! I spent at least a minute trying to remember where the apostrophe is on a US keyboard; it didn't help that the apostrophe key was missing from the virtual board at the time. It would also be nice to have an option for an ISO keyboard layout as well as ANSI, but I can understand the greater technical challenge involved there :slight_smile: Aside from that, this is truly lovely. The choice of text to copy is particularly nice.

Nailed the game, because I have keys missing on my msi laptop :P Jokes aside, this game is very good, I enjoyed it. Maybe adding a bit fatal errors for missing the correct keys or not being able to put the detached key in time would be even better, but for 72 hours this game looks good and cohesive.

I had a fun time struggling with a horrible broken keyboard. I tend to type very, very quickly and reaching my usual zen typist state was delightfully disturbed by the constant bug squishing sounds. Overall sound effects were fantastic and enjoyable.

I played a few rounds quickly, and a few rounds slow and meticulously, and I don't see anywhere that speed was given a bonus. If you felt the need to return to work on the game, I think the addition of a speed bonus would be fun.

I played this on Livestream Today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGr9VAOjIQs

Excellent game, I sent this to my fiancee who lost a lot of time to it. I enjoyed myself!

Haha, nice little game. Fun to play The only critic I can give is that I got stuck on AZERTY mode as you are mixing azerty layout with qwerty keys but I had fun to play !

Great work guys :) Really creepy :p

Original game! I love how you bring the mechanography games a step forward. It sounds a funny game to try in VR, I would like to test it!

This is absolutely fantastic. I'm in awe at how well done this is. The 3D models for the keyboard, the sounds, the look of the monochrome CRT, are very well done. I'm super impressed with this. Great job!

Very cool game, sadly not very related to the theme!

laaph 2017-05-17 04:03

Excellent presentation, the graphics and visuals work well together, the clickings of the keyboard work well with that. Very well done!

This is absolutely hilarious.

A wonderful game idea, it's awesome that it was executed very well! The squishing sound effects are amazing, and the game is absolutely fun to play!

Shit this is the best so far. Wonder why no one is rating this game. overall 5/5 though I put 2/5 on theme cause I think this doesn't fit well with the theme small world

I could not get the game to run, it remains blank at the end of the Made With Unity splash screen. I ran the Win32 build.

(edit): Never mind! I ran another LD game and found it had the same problem, so figured it was on my end. I rebooted my computer and then it worked fine!

The game is fun, there is something satisfying about getting a big streak without errors and typing away. You dont actually need to place the buttons in their correct place. But maybe you should? Thats an idea for a hard mode right there: if you swap two keys by mistake it actually changes their binding!

The mouse does not work for me (Linux build, Archlinux) but it is still a pleasent game to play! Great job!

Thanks for the free typing tutor! Has some bugs though...
